Matilda Joslyn Gage (March 24, 1826 – March 18, 1898) was a 19th-century women's suffragist a Native American rights activist, an abolitionist, a freethinker and a prolific author, who was "born with a hatred of oppression."
One of the most radical, far-sighted and articulate early feminists, Matilda Joslyn Gage was deliberately written out of history after her death in 1898 by an increasingly conservative suffrage movement. Equal in importance to Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Gage is all but unknown today. Work is under way to correct that through the Matilda Joslyn Gage Foundation.
